Sorry, but I had to fudge this one a bit. I really wanted to include Electrical Storm video in ‘My U2 A to Z’ and I couldn’t leave out the Elevation Tour, so here you have it Storm, Electrical aka Electrical Storm. It is a good song, but it is even a better video. Electrical Storm is really U2 porn. Seriously, watch the video below and you’ll see – especially if you love Larry Mullen like I do. The video is all about Larry – Larry wet, Larry in the tub, Larry in the ocean, Larry kissing. Sigh! Every time I listen to Electrical Storm, the video plays in my head.

This blog post is part of my A to Z April Challenge about ‘My U2′ – what I love about U2 from A to Z. Thanks for stopping by. I am also blogging the A to Z Challenge on my other blog Deena’s Days about ‘My Music’ – music I love from A to Z.

E is for Electrical Storm

Posted in A to Z April Challenge, Songs with tags , , on April 5, 2012 by DeenasDays

My favorite U2 song that begins with E is Electrical Storm. I have to admit the entire reason it is one of my favorites is because of the video. Every time I listen to Electrical Storm, the video plays in my head. And the video is all about Larry. Larry wet, Larry in the tub, Larry in the ocean, Larry kissing. Sigh! Electrical Storm is a great song that is made even better when the images of its video play in my head when I listen to it.

The sea it swells like a sore head and the night it is aching
Two lovers lie with no sheets on their bed
And the day it is breaking
On rainy days we’d go swimming out
On rainy days swimming in the sound
On rainy days we’d go swimming out
You’re in my mind all of the time
I know that’s not enough
If the sky can crack there must be someway back
For love and only love
Electrical Storm
Electrical Storm
Baby don’t cry
Car alarm won’t let you back to sleep
You’re kept awake dreaming someone elses dream
Coffee is cold but it’ll get you through
Compromise that’s nothing new to you.
Let’s see colours that have never been seen
Let’s go places no one else has been
You’re in my mind all of the time
I know that’s not enough
Well if the sky can crack there must be someway back
To love and only love
Electrical storm x 3
Baby don’t cry
It’s hot as hell, honey in this room
Sure hope the weather will break soon
The air is heavy, heavy as a truck
We need the rain to wash away our bad luck
Well if the sky can crack there must be some way back
To love and only love
Electrical storm
Baby don’t cry
